The interiors of Haven-1 vs Lunar Gateway is like Dragon vs Starliner. This looks great. I'm really hoping they have a successful demo mission and get plenty of customers.
I seriously doubt it will look like that. Where is storage? Where is research equipment? I don't think it will be nearly this spacious.
In the walls along the tunnel?
This is also just their first and smallest module, and it isn't meant to be permanently occupied. I'm thinking of it more like taking an RV on a 2 week road trip.
Their longer term plans get more ambitious, starting with a module sized for Starship, then connecting a bunch of those. Their comparisons are also helpful, like showing that Haven-1 is like a Salyut station.

You're right, somehow I managed to miss the tunnel completely... But still, it's all very clean, neat and lacks any fixtures, machinery, velcros etc. It looks very nice, but not very realistic. But I admit I'm not the target audience.
